poems that touched my heart - 1

I know when he's been on your mind
That distant look is in your eyes
I thought with time you'd realize it's over, over
It's not the way I choose to live
Bit something somewhere's gotta give
As sharing in this relationship gets older, older

You know I'd fight for you but how could I fight someone who isn't even there
I've had the rest of you now I want the best of you I don't care if that's not
fair

Cuz I want it all
Or nothing at all
There's nowhere left to fall
When you reach the bottom it's now or never
Is it all
Or are we just friends
Is this how it ends
With a simple telephone call
You leave me here with nothing at all

There are time it seems to me
I'm sharing you with memories
I feel it in my heart but I don't show it, show it
Then there's times you look at me
As though I'm all that you cN see
Those times I don't believe it's right I know it, know it

Don't make me promises baby you never did know how to keep them well
I had the rest of you now I want the best of you it's time to show and tell

Cuz I want it all
Or nothing at all
There's nowhere left to fall
When you reach the bottom it's now or never
Is it all
Or are we just friends
Is this how it ends
With a simple telephone call
You leave me here with nothing at all

Cuz you and I
Could lose it all if you've got no more room
No more inside for me in your life

Cuz I want it all
Or Nothing at all
There's nowhere left to fall
It's now or never

Is it all
Or nothing at all
When you reach the bottom it's now or never
Is it all
Or are we just friends
Is this how it ends
With a simple telephone call
You leave me here with nothing

Cuz you and I
Could lose it all if you've got no more room
No more inside for me in your life

Cuz I want it all
Or nothing at all
There's nowhere left to fall
It's now or never

Is it all
Or nothing at all
When you reach the bottom it's now or never
Is it all
Or are we just friends
Is this how it ends
With a simple telephone call
You leave me here with nothing at all

Our Journey to Makka :)

last thursday: my husband, my sister, her husband and i went to the Holy lands of Makka to perform Umrah as ALLAH (saw) and prophet mohammed (pbuh) commanded. It was the best weekend ever :)

we have decided that we will come again and again Insha'Allah because two days are NEVER enough !

Off to the Holy Lands :)

أتحبني وأنا ضريرة ؟

قالت لهُ...
أتحبني وأنا ضريرة ...
وفي الدُّنيا بناتُ كثيرة ...
الحلوةُ و الجميلةُ و المثيرة ...
ما أنت إلا بمجنون ...
أو مشفقٌ على عمياء العيون ...
قالَ ...
بل أنا عاشقٌ يا حلوتي ...
ولا أتمنى من دنيتي ...
إلا أن تصيري زوجتي ...
وقد رزقني الله المال ...
وما أظنُّ الشفاء مٌحال ...
قالت ...
إن أعدتّ إليّ بصري ...
سأرضى بكَ يا قدري ...
وسأقضي معك عمري ...
لكن ..
من يعطيني عينيه ...
وأيُّ ليلِ يبقى لديه ...
وفي يومٍ جاءها مُسرِعا ...
أبشري قد وجدّتُ المُتبرِّعا ...
وستبصرين ما خلق اللهُ وأبدعا ...
وستوفين بوعدكِ لي ...
وتكونين زوجةً لي ...
ويوم فتحت أعيُنها ...
كان واقفاَ يمسُك يدها ...
رأتهُ ...
فدوت صرختُها ...
أأنت أيضاً أعمى؟!!...
وبكت حظها الشُؤمَ ...
لا تحزني يا حبيبتي ...
ستكونين عيوني و دليلتي ...
فمتى تصيرين زوجتي ...
قالت ...
أأنا أتزوّجُ ضريرا ...
وقد أصبحتُ اليومَ بصيرا ...
فبكى ...
وقال سامحيني ...
من أنا لتتزوّجيني ...
ولكن ...
قبل أن تترُكيني ...
أريدُ منكِ أن تعديني ...
أن تعتني جيداً بعيوني ..

Michael Sandel: What's the right thing to do?

View Video first: http://www.ted.com/talks/michael_sandel_what_s_the_right_thing_to_do.html

"thank you uncle Osama for telling me about the video"

it is a very interesting subject which i would love to hear or perhaps READ your comments and opinion on. i already posted the coment and i wrote:

first of all i would like to thank mr. Michael Sandel for his outstanding performance in this tough yet great argument. i couldn't -not for one second- be distracted from the video and my eyes were wide open on the screen.
as for the issue, i think that in all situations the decision was dependant on one man or let's say "mind" and this mind has lived years under certain circumstances that made up his sets of rights and wrongs which certainly varies from one society to another if not a house to another . it is not about outnumbering because racism, for instance, was built upon the hatred of thousands to a minority of only different skinned people. So is the number a reliable factor here?
The same applies to the "necessity demands" point of view. Who gets to decide what's necessary or not? Let's view the situations:
(1) the driver –unwilling to commit murder- gets to decide whether to kill 1 or 5 people in this tragic accident. Apparently, The value of one person is priceless to him because he –the driver- wants to survive. Otherwise he'd simply crash in between and save the 6. What makes his life worth a better chance than the one worker?
(2) The man on the bridge should NOT push the fat guy. Because the driver is the one who should decide. Getting involved in others decision may cause a worse consequence. What if he missed the car? he would have killed the fat man, the driver, and whoever was there to be dead. In politics we have tons of examples on how penetrating into a countries inner affairs would damage both societies.
(3) The tragic voyage. Even if the 17 yrs old sailor agreed to sacrifice himself to save the others it is not the right of anyone to take the life of a breathing human even when he's sick. The necessity here is justified only when they eat the flesh of the first man who dies among them. They wouldn't die all at the same time, would they?
(4) The doctor: if I was in this situation I would pick up the patients randomly because all of them have equal rights to be saved and survive. I'd let their bodies decide when to leave life.
(5) The organ donor: would the doctor donate his kidney if he's a positive donor to one of them? Would he do that to his daughter if she was the person lying down in peace next to his ER? I don't think so.
Again, I really enjoyed every split second of the lecture and I would want to be there whenever this issue is on :)

ORGAN DONATION.. with or against ?

"مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ كَتَبْنَا عَلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَّهُ مَن قَتَلَ نَفْسًا بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ أَوْ فَسَادٍ فِي الأَرْضِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ النَّاسَ جَمِيعًا وَمَنْ أَحْيَاهَا فَكَأَنَّمَا أَحْيَا النَّاسَ جَمِيعًا وَلَقَدْ جَاء تْهُمْ رُسُلُنَا بِالبَيِّنَاتِ ثُمَّ إِنَّ كَثِيرًا مِّنْهُم بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فِي الأَرْضِ لَمُسْرِفُونَ"
"005.032 On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our apostles with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land. "

imagine you were in a serious critical condition on a bed somewhere inside the ER surrounded by your friends and family waiting for a solution.. what's the problem? your liver, kidney or spleen suddenly stopped working!
what is the first poping idea to all?
CAN SOME ONE DONATE A KIDNEY ? or else you'd die.

if in this situation you accepted to recieve an organ, will you donate one of yours later on ? or perhaps when you die?

isn't it greedy to have the chance to re-live your life from others organs and not to pay the debt back ?

will you donate your organs after you die? why ? why not ?

ZAMZAM results analysis !

CONTAMINATED !!

Result analysis:
there are more than one reason for the growth to be as it shows up in the picture, one of which i think is true .
(1) Zamzam is a regular water and the spirtuality and curing features comes from Allah.
(2) zamzam sample was not pure or maybe mixed with other water at the time of filling the bottles in mekka
(2) incubation temperature (44 degrees) revived the bacterial cells in the sample. (direct filtration without incubation will confirm or deny this theory , so i will do it)
(3) zamzam loses its characterestics after a period of time
(4) ..... you write your opinion :)

ZAMZAM experiment ! part 2

goodmorning :)
back to phase two of our experiment . the samples were kept in the incubator for over 48 hours and a good growth is expected.


samples taken out and what we need: funnels, filter papers, growth media "food", and sample


funnel fixed in the "membrane filtration system"



take and fix the filter paper to the system


add sample and run the device.


remove the filter paper and place it in the media
note: i used ENDO agar for "total coliform count" and S&B media for "fecal streptococci"


put the plates in the incubator and wait for 24 hours :)

am i a racist !?

WHY ON EARTH would anybody serve someone just for his blonde skin?? i hate FAWNING !
i'm not against human traits or anything! i'm just sick and tired from what i see every day !!! i'm against humility and lack of pride ! not every AMERICAN is a genius ! not every RUSSIAN is a nuclear scientist! not every FRENCH is born with etiquette !! come on !! where is your dignity!! your pride, your self-esteem ! YOU ARE BORN WITH MINDS THAT ARE WORTH 700 OF THEIRS!!
"mind my anger" but look at how things are these days :
(1) in a restaurant, there was an Egyptian man who's "OMG" so smart in biotechnology, he was explaining something about a proposal to a project for a BRITISH guy who just didn't even BOTHER to eye-contact him and was just humming and ohing: "mmm, oh, yes, interesting,mmm, i see" and chewed his chicken platter. the egyptian guy was mostly like in a begging position although HE HAD ALL THE INFORMATION in his head !!
(2) at a presentation, a syrian scientist was explaining a GIANT PROJECT he is a consultant in, and all the audience were arabs except for one German guy who was in the team. He -the syrian- explained every detail with confidence and proficiency and he used english so this fellow would understand. after that, he wrapped up the whole thing and introduced Mr.German to take the microphone and stepped down the stage. Mr.German stood on the auditorium, talked for like 5 minutes with fragmented non-clear sentences and stopped. THE HALL WAS ON EARTHQUAKE from people's claps and all jumped to meet him, guess you would know who's business cards were taken huh ?!
(3) a business meeting at a CAFE, there as an indian man wearing a formal suit with 1000 files under his arm and 2000 on the table awaiting some guy for what so ever. he was so nervous , holding a paper and revising it more and more that he attracted my attention. i -CURSED AS ALWAYS- sat on the next table and waited for my order to arrive. "GUESS" how respectful the expectant was...? HE CAME WITH SHORTS ON !! SHORTS !! as if he's meeting a seal on a swimming pool !!!
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR i wanted to kill that indian guy wallah .. a big "MALAT 3ALAIK" was right at the edge to blow from my chest.
would he wear these shorts for an interview back in his country ? NAAAAH, he's just an indian huh ?

BOTTOM LINE: if you like blondes.. LIKE THEM, LOVE THEM, MEET THEM, BE FRIENDs WITH THEM BUT REMEMBER....... YOU ARE EQUAL TO THEM NOT LOWER !

ZAMZAM experiment ! part 1

Hello dearest friends ! today i will write about my little investigation "a tiny experiment" on ZAMZAM water :)

Introduction: Bacteria are microorganisms that live everywhere. in drinking water, the count of bacteria must be ZERO or it will be considered as "dangerous" and IT will certainly cause diseases to those who drink it.

my experiment aim is: to check if ZAMZAM water inhibits the growth of microorganisms or supports it. in other words: can ZAMZAM water be contaminated and become risky?

what do i need ?

sterilized tubes - bacterial culture- bunsen burner - marker - lighter - zamzam water - tap water.

Procedure:
1- 2 sterile tubes are marked using perminant marker as shown.


2- pipet 10 ml from each sample to its tube.


3- take an inoculum from the bacterial culture "i took 2 colonies"


4- inoculate each tube with the same culture.


5- incubate at 44 degrees for 24 hours "i will wait the whole weekend !"




await the results :)

Lest we suffer.. we forget

in life, we pass through painful moments; times when we tear a lot or become torn apart. times when we feel forceless and things around us just -suddenly- become black.
from time to time we feel it's the end of the world.. but the world betray us, it doesn't end or show any signs of upcoming cease and agony carries on. Just at this moment you remember to "FORGET". you appreciate the fact that your brain may not recall all the details it had previously stored in and you hope this bitter moment is put to the unwanted section of history. does that work ?
Not to me. i've been through tough moments where i had to decide when to pull the rope of my own gibbet. i faced terrifying moments , painful minutes, and very cruel seconds but i survived. And that what really mattered.
i always try to forget, but i continuously fail. maybe because everything around me reminds me of what has happened. the colors, the odor, the things i hold in hand and every single detail in my surroundings reminds me of it. i always have a moment in my day where i sit quiet for a minute and sigh.

Water Crystals tell alot ..!

For ages, we've been watching lots of Christians hanging beautiful objects on their Christmas trees. These objects represent something not all of us understand. if you are not a Christian, a scientist or a good article-reader you may not recognize these symbols and would probably refer them to Christianity. But they're not; they're just a magnification of a snowflake ! when water freezes it forms crystals and these crystals vary in shape,organization, and angles orientation depending of the surrounding factors . Quoting from (water secrets revealed): "From Mr. Emoto's work we are provided with factual evidence, that human vibrational energy, thoughts, words, ideas and music, affect the molecular structure of water, the very same water that comprises over seventy percent of a mature human body and covers the same amount of our planet. Water is the very source of all life on this planet, the quality and integrity are vitally important to all forms of life. The body is very much like a sponge and is composed of trillions of chambers called cells that hold liquid. The quality of our life is directly connected to the quality of our water" end quote. after reading this article i was flabbergasted! i went to hundreds of other articles trying to double-check on this information: is true enough to be told? if YES then it's the reason why we recite the holy Quran on water to be healed !!!! i found videos on youtube and articles in many languages and all were supporting the fact that crystals are formed in a clear defined shape if they were exposed to positive circumstances and they will "not" whenever there is a negative influence, whether it was vocal or written. if this was a FACT and facts are supposed to be true , then knowing it will change our behavior in life. since our body is made up of 70% water and water changes with surroundings then this would push us towards CAREING and DEFINING the environment we stay in. like if we gather in a good loving atmosphere or where the holy quran is recited, then this loving power will be reflected in the water of our body and subsequently introduce joy to our lives.

CONCLUSION: sit with me ALOT :P

My 26th Birthday ..

In every part of the world people gather around a table hugging and singing for one person who's celebrating his or her birthday. the very cheerful and most wonderful moment is when he or she gets to blow out the candle and his wish -supposingly- will come true. well, that is not what my birthday is like.

i thank Allah for he made me live 26 years with health and beauty.
i thank Allah for he gave me a lovely family and the best loving parents.
i thank Allah for he granted me two little angels.
i thank Allah for he gave me caring and loving friends, even when we are far apart .. we still keep an eye on each other.

may Allah help me conserve the joy he'd given me through all these 26 years
